Exogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Activates PI3K/Akt/eNOS Pathway to Improve Replicative Senescence in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells

Figure 7

NaHS activated PI3K/Akt/eNOS signaling to alleviate replicative senescence of HUVECs. (a) Western blot analysis and statistics of p-PI3K (b), p-Akt (c), and p-eNOS (d) , as examined by LSD-t test after ANOVA. CON: Control group, HUVECs at CPDL2; RS: replicative Senescence group, HUVECs at CPDL16; RS + NaHS: HUVECs at CPDL16 and exposed to 200 μmol/L NaHS for 24 hours. RS + NaHS + LY:HUVECs at CPDL16 and exposed to 10 μmol/L LY294002 prior to treatment of 200 μmol/L NaHS for 24 hours.
